Boye, Eva Svantesen Translation & Design: Kari Sodeland Print: Birkeland Trykkeri A/S Rammevilkårene ligger derfor til rette for å videreføre vår virksomhet med hovedkontor i Grimstad - og med fortsatt stø kurs i den internasjonale konkurransen. JJ Ugland selskapene driver utstrakt internasjonal virksomhet. Rederivirksomheten har datterselskaper i Stavanger og St. John s, offiserer og mannskap fra Filippinene, Norge, Canada og mange andre nasjoner og fartøyer som seiler på alle verdens hav. Industrivirksomheten har medarbeidere fra en rekke nasjoner og leverer produkter til kunder i Norge og i fjernere strøk som Kina og Brasil. Begge virksomhetsområdene konkurrerer hele tiden med aktører i inn- og utland. Spesielt for rederivirksomhet i sin alminnelighet er at den er mobil og kan drives ut i fra de fleste land. Det er derfor en viss konkurranse mellom land om å tiltrekke seg slik virksomhet. J J Ugland selskapene har imidlertid alltid hatt hovedkontor i Grimstad og slik skal det fortsatt være. Det har mange fordeler; ikke minst at vi er en del av den norske maritime klyngen og kan utnytte til fulle den solide erfaring og kompetanse som er bygget opp over flere år i vår organisasjon. For å lykkes i den internasjonale konkurransen, er det likevel viktig for oss at rammevilkårene i Norge for vår virksomhet er forutsigbare og konkurransedyktige. I 2007 la Regjeringen frem en strategi for maritim næring kalt «Stø kurs» med visjon om at «Norge skal være en verdensledende maritim nasjon og et attraktivt maritimt vertsland.» Viktige elementer i denne strategien var en revidert rederiskatteordning basert på EUs retningslinjer og en rekke andre tiltak for å styrke næringen. De senere år har EU evaluert sine retningslinjer for statsstøtte, herunder om rederiskatteordningen kan videreføres i sin nåværende form. I september i år besluttet EU å videreføre retningslinjene, hvilket innebærer at Norge har rett til å videreføre rederiskatteordningen. I årets valgkamp i Norge har det vært en viss spenning knyttet til om de konservative partiene, som vant valget, vil videreføre rederiskatteordningen og de øvrige elementer i «Stø kurs» uendret. Da de endelige partiprogrammene forelå, ble det imidlertid klart at de alle vil gå inn for å videreføre denne strategien. Selv om den nye regjeringens tiltredelseserklæring ennå ikke foreligger, legger jeg til grunn at de vil oppfylle sine valgløfter. De har også lovet at de vil redusere den særnorske formuesskatten og over tid fjerne denne. Dette vi i så fall styrke så vel vår rederivirksomhet som vår industrivirksomhet. Rammevilkårene ligger derfor til rette for å videreføre vår virksomhet med hovedkontor i Grimstad - og med fortsatt stø kurs i den internasjonale konkurransen. Jørgen Lund, styreformann The framework is therefore well in place to carry on our activity from our main office in Grimstad - with a continued steady course in international competition. The JJ Ugland Companies provide extensive worldwide services. The shipping arm has subsidiaries in Stavanger and St. John s, officers and crew from the Philippines, Norway, Canada and many other nations, and vessels sailing in global waters. The industry section employs people of various nationalities and delivers products and services to customers in Norway and distant places such as China and Brazil. Both sections continuously compete both with companies in this country and abroad. Typical for the shipping industry in general is that it is mobile and can be run from most countries. Therefore, there is a certain competition between countries wishing to attract this kind of activity. Notwithstanding, The JJ Ugland Companies have always run their business from their headquarters in Grimstad, Norway and will continue to do so. This has many advantages; not least that we are part of the Norwegian maritime cluster and can harvest benefits from the skills and expertise built up through a number of years in our organisation. However, in order to succeed in the international market it is paramount that the Norwegian framework pertaining to our business is predictable and competitive. In 2007, the government presented a strategy for the maritime industry called Steady as she goes with a vision that Norway will be a world-leading maritime nation and an attractive maritime host country. Important elements in this strategy were a revised shipping tax regime based on the EU s guidelines as well as several other measures aimed at strengthening the industry. In recent years, the EU has evaluated its state aid guidelines, including whether the existing Norwegian shipping tax regime can be maintained. In September this year, the EU decided to keep the guidelines unchanged, which means that Norway is entitled to continue its shipping tax regime. In this year s election campaign in Norway there was some uncertainty as to whether the conservative parties which won the election would maintain the shipping tax regime and the other elements in Steady as she goes without amendments. However, the final party programmes revealed that they are determined to continue this strategy. Even though the new Government s Inaugural Address has still not been held, I presume they will keep their election promise in this respect. They have also promised to reduce the distinctively Norwegian wealth tax and gradually remove it. In that case, this will strengthen not only our shipping activity but also our industrial activity in the oil and gas sector. The framework is therefore well in place to carry on our activity from our headquarters in Grimstad - with a continued steady course in international competition. Jørgen Lund, Chairman 2. 3.
